I always enjoyed my time with Uncle Joe as I always called him.  Mother (Beth) told stories of her Brother and I always thought he sounded like the kind of guy you would want to be around.  He was!  I learned about his being a neat freak the summer he let me stay with him in Tulsa while attending a summer training program.  He gave me a tour of his home and then detailed instructions on how to keep everything clean.  He was generous having others at his lake cabin and I remember good times together.  You could see that Cova was the love of his life by the way he looked at her.  What a great coulple!  Enjoy your promotion Joe, we will miss you here.
